Will holding an asian shore crab and Mikey sitting on the sand watching the waves

My mom and her husband had a condo in a town near us. Their complex was right on the water so we took this free summer day and went for a visit.

Mikey watching as Mimi and Will search for shells.

Here’s my Facebook post from that day, showing our adventures: finding Asian shore crabs, looking for shells, sitting on the beach and having a snack by the pool.

Facebook post: 5 photos of the fun. Mikey smiling with mimi, mikey watching will and mimi search for shells, will holding a tiny asian shore crab, mikey sitting in the sand and Will and Pop sitting by the pool.
